Pathetic the number of posts claiming lack of smarts in defense of #HarryKane.
Grow a pair white fellas and Football/Soccer fans and pundits.

When you see minimal-to-zero media pundits upset with the real life display of a white, privileged male boasting to the media about playing a round of a golf with a literal rapist pedophile that desires autocratic rule and quid-pro-quo rule globally & who commits financial & war crimes…no wonder the world suffers and burns.

Sent JP a note earlier but for those in other countries who don’t know him, he was broadcasting ⚽️ in the USA when it didn’t have anything like the status it enjoys now. Deserves the plaudits coming his way.
Always nice to catch up with JP around big tournaments.

Nothing like playing golf with a rapist pedophile who does war crimes and wants to see autocracy win and saying it was “surreal.”

A fun read to learn more behind the name.
Thanks, Team Mojeek.

Yesterday was a sad day for the privacy of citizens in the EU given the extension of #ChatControl 1.0, allowing for voluntary scanning of private communications.

In light of yesterday's vote, we wanted to remind you that: Chat Control 1.0 is different from Chat Control 2.0 in that providers (like us at Tuta) are not forced to backdoor their end-to-end encryption for surveillance.

At Tuta, if Chat Control 2.0 is passed we have two options: to move out of the EU or sue and fight it. As our CEO, Matthias Pfau has stated, we would sue and fight for people's privacy. Because for us, undermining end-to-end encryption is not an option.

We will continue to say no to #ChatControl and fight for everyone's right to privacy. ✊🏻❤️🔒

@Mojeek - I enjoy your search engine. Out of curiosity, what does Mojeek mean/stand for?

Our new app is almost ready for you!

We've also been working on a brand new webUI, project website and several federation improvements.

Next week we will share more details on the rollout timeline, stay tuned!

Every EU tech coprporation like @Tutanota @Vivaldi @protonprivacy @ente @Qwant @Mastodon and others will need to issue their own statements being for the people and protecting their privacy or, if they don't, will be informing users and the people that they have always sided against us as well.

The EU commission wants to maintain good relations with Israel, even as the UN human rights commission accuses the country of committing genocide in Gaza.

Researchers found that the initiative gives large chemical producers, who stand to benefit directly from how the critical minerals list is drawn up, a central role in deciding what goes on it.

Between 2020 and 2023, Germany spent €860m subsidising the purchase of Teslas — a scheme that helped unlock Berlin's share of the EU's Covid recovery fund, according to internal documents obtained by EUobserver. Now, Elon Musk's Berlin gigafactory is also receiving more than €71m in state aid.

Ok, I did my talk.

Beyond responsible AI.

Key highlights:

- if someone says they’re doing responsible AI but has no TEVV (test, evaluate, verify, validate) plan or team, they are not responsible at all

- Who is testing AI now? Only research scientists, engineers, mostly in China and San Francisco Bay Area, and a few select testing labs (mostly in the global north)

- Who is not involved? Blue collar workers, people who don’t do ‘knowledge work’, people who speak other languages, young people, people who AI can impact significantly

- Why don’t people do more tests? Expensive, hard to run, long, static. By the time you’re done, you’ve got to do it again. No guarantee anyone’s incorporating your work or data to fix anything. No feedback loop back into frontier labs (anywhere)

- How to include more people? Use plain English. Be inclusive. Make space for others. Clearly explain this is not only for science or computer people. Be explicit, say this over and over again.

- Teach people to read model cards like nutritional labels. What are the components? What does it all mean?

- Require multilingual benchmarks repeatedly in all model releases. Now they test math, bio risks, but only very few model developers do any multilingual testing at all. Unacceptable as we already know that’s not a future existential risk; that’s a today risk

- Everyone can do testing. There are participatory evals emerging. They should get out of academic / civil society spaces.

- At the same time, be aware of asking those most harmed by AI to bear the costs of AI testing. If you’re building multilingual mental health benchmarks you need psychologists. Just like any scientific study with burden of care.

- Pay people. And not always the same people. If you’re a N American or European lab asking people in the global south, but really anywhere, to work for free, shame on you.

- We don’t have good tools and processes for agentic AI testing and evaluation yet.

GOODBYE Geneva, it’s been real. I’ll probably be back next year.
